The Chin Swee Caves Temple is located 4,600 feet above sea level on a 28 acre plot of rocky, forested land donated by Genting Group Founder Tan Sri Dato Seri (Dr) Lim Goh Tong. It is about 5-10 minutes drive down from the peak of the mountain. It is the most scenic site of Genting Highlands.

One of the attractions is the newly-built observation square called the Sky Terrace. Spanning across 35,000 square feet, the Sky Terrace was built for guests to take a leisurely walk among the 'clouds in heaven'.

A large statue of the late Tan Sri Dato' Seri Lim Goh Tong erected in honor of his dedication to the Chin Swee Caves Temple stands tall in the vicinity of the Sky Terrace.

My blogger friends and me.

Nine colour dragon wall of luck is at the main entrance of the Temple. The nine colours represent different type of luck. For instance, in ancient folklore, a scholar meeting a yellow dragon would be destined to become a high-ranking official.

Large statue of Kuan-Yin.

Large statue of Buddha. Besides praying to Kuan-Yin and Buddha, devotees can also pray to a black seated statue of Reverend Master Chin Swee which is found inside the Temple.

My daughter touching the holy water. It is believed that this holy water can protect people.

The most popular tourist attraction is the Journey to Enlightenment that depicts the Ten Chambers of Hell. According to Chinese beliefs, the soul of a dead person would be sent to the First Chamber of Hell and his past deeds would be screened by Chin-Kwong-Wang who would decide whether he should receive punishment.

A good soul would be sent for rebirth in the Heavenly Realm.

For those who are looking for a quiet place away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the right place to visit. The Gohtong Hall consists of 110 rooms - 93 triple tooms and 17 double rooms for meditation, retreat and self discovery.

There is also a function hall 7,035 square feet to accommodate 300 people comfortably and two meeting rooms with a built-up area of 1,400 square feet and 650 square feet respectively. For more information on Chin Swee Temple, please visit www.csc.org.my or call 03-27181113.
